The veteran singer Asha told TOI, “They aren’t allowing anybody. I went once but wasn’t allowed inside the compound itself. There are severe restrictions and protocols being followed in view of the ongoing pandemic.” Asha Bhosle added, “Besides, I too am not very well- a bit of cough and cold. I haven’t contracted COVID; just a bit under the weather.
